I had the opportunity to meet the lovely Jess Gonacha for coffee yesterday afternoon and am STILL floating on air. The gal is amazing, hands down. We gossiped about nuptials, art and life— as well as our favorite blogs (shh, not telling who’s on the list!).
I still find it amazing that we live in a world where relationships are literally at our fingertips— we are indeed very, very lucky.
Thank you, Jess [and Ryan], for your crazy amount of inspiration yesterday!
I’m so jealous she got to meet you in person, but of course I’ll continue to respect, admire and appreciate from afar! It is pretty amazing how we’re able to connect with people these days . . .
i agree! i have met so many creative, wonderful people online in the past few months: amazing people that i would be too shy or intimidated to meet in person. and it’s even more fun when you can meet them face-to-face after forming an “online relationship”. yay for the interwebs!
Oooh lucky duck! I’m so jealous. She seems so sweet and funny!
AND you featured my favorite piece of her work!
Just to confirm— she IS so sweet and SO funny. I just love her!!! :)

LOVE her work…I recently bought a print from her (thanks to one of your posts!) and she couldn’t have been sweeter in her emails back and forth with me. So nice that you got to meet her! :)
